Autonomic Function in Parkinson's Disease Subjects Across Repeated Short-Term Dry Immersion: Evidence From Linear and Non-linear HRV Parameters.
Article in Frontiers in physiology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Several studies have shown that "dry" immersion appears as a promising method of rehabilitation for Parkinson's disease. Still, little is known about the cardiovascular reaction in "dry" immersion (DI), especially in Parkinson's disease (PD). Therefore, this study was aimed to evaluate the effect of repeated 45-min DI sessions on autonomic function in subjects with PD. The study group consisted of 20 subjects with PD [13 men, seven women, aged 51-66 years old, Hoehn & Yahr (H&Y) staged 1-3] were enrolled in the study according to inclusion and non-inclusion criteria. The DI program was comprised of seven 45-min DI sessions, applied within 25-30 days. Blood pressure (BP), heart rate (HR), and electrocardiogram (ECG) in the standard lead II were recorded at 1st, 4th, and 7th DI, before, on the 15, 30, and 40th min of DI session. Autonomic function was assessed with analysis of heart rate variability (HRV) using Kubios Standard version 2 software. Linear (time- and frequency-domain) and non-linear (correlation dimension, entropies, DFA1 and DFA2, percent of determinism, and recurrence) were computed. At baseline condition, time- and frequency-domain HRV parameters showed low variability of HR, which indicates reduced autonomic neurogenic control of HR. Throughout the DI session, systolic and diastolic BP has decreased by 5-7 mm Hg (
